In the 1970s the department purchased a 1971 Mack Pumper 1200 GPM 6 speed automatic geared and powered especially for the steep streets of the Broadmoor district.

In 1975 the fire department acquired a mini pumper on a 1975 International chassis. That same year the fire department began staffing with full time firefighters.

In 1977 the first EMT worked at the station beginning the fire department's official change to Emergency Medical Response. In 1981 the volunteers were disbanded and the department became a full time paid fire department.

The first paramedic was hired in 1984 offering full time ALS coverage which has continued since.

In 2004 the department relocated to its current location on El Pomar Road, where it continues to serve the community.
